Hellraiser
Motorhead渀 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Around the world for rock and roll
Sometimes it feels so tough
But I still ain't had enough
I keep saying that it's getting too much
But I know I'm a liar
Feeling all right in the noise and the light
Hellraiser, in the thunder and heat
Hellraiser, rock you back in your seat
Hellraiser, and I'll make it come true
Hellraiser, I'll put a spell on you
Walking out on another stage
Another town, another place
Sometimes I don't feel right
Nerves wound up too damn tight
Don't you tell me it's bad for my health
But kicking back don't make it
Out of control, I play the ultimate role
Don't know how to make it
Hellraiser, in the thunder and heat
Hellraiser, rock you back in your seat
Hellraiser, and I'll make it come true
Hellraiser, I'll put a spell on you
I'm living on an endless road
Around the world for rock and roll
Sometimes it feels so tough
But I still ain't had enough
I keep saying that it's getting too much
But I know I'm a liar
Feeling all right in the noise and the light
But that's what lights my fire
Hellraiser, in the thunder and heat
Hellraiser, rock you back in your seat
Hellraiser, and I'll make it come true
Hellraiser, I'll put a spell on you

Have you thought about one thing?
No matter how much I love original Hellraiser and even consider Hellbound to be even better, it IS hard to deny that they both has been somewhat bitten by the teeth of time.
However, they are unlike most other 80's horror movies impossible to regard as unintentional funny.
They are as serious as Pinhead, when he appears, regardless whether pleasure or pain awaits!
I'm really excited to watch this remake!
@gaymagician
It’s worth mentioning this is the first hellraiser film to get BOTH Clive Barker AND Doug Bradley’s blessing. A rare double whammy we haven’t seen since the second installment!
IThis trailer is well put together as it doesn’t feel like the movie is being spoiled. I remember closing out of Halloween kills trailer 30 seconds in cause I felt like every kill scene was being shown
I’ve rewatched this trailer at least 30 times and I’m obsessed with the visuals. I’m finding something new every second and it’s cooking up all these theories in my head!!!
My friends and me are already quoting pinheads “what is it you pray for” line
Besides art the clown, no other horror has gotten the horror movie geek me this excited
I will most likely be watching this movie 100 times 😂😂
@marc8750
My only gripe: this movie deserves to be watched in a theater. Very rare to find horror like this now in days
@raymondhernandez2935
Ugh I know! This actually looks promising! And we can't watch it on the big screen 😫
@Huntbeck33
I agree but I also understand cause the franchise has not been good since the 2nd or 3rd movie
@rustyshackleford6035
Hulu is trying to bring people to there streaming service basically saying yeah Netflix has the Munsters and the school of Good vs evil but do they Hellraiser no but we do
@goodburger1114
I agree. I go to the movies everyday. So sick of movies being streamed
@hbbram90
Agreed.
@MrFirefly3000
The box hurting you the more you solve it, is just a fantastic detail. Goes to show you really want it.
@Chuckles_the_Jester
and it actually looks like a plausible puzzle box, the original only had like 2 sets of movements that phsically aren't possble to have on the same box
@dudebarracuda1985
Very excited to see the artistry and surprises of the box itself, because I felt that’s what the prior movies were lacking. I feel like this movie put a nail in it, pun intended.…
@LinkMcStink
That was always weird in the original films how easily you could trick someone into solving it. Like, at least in the first 2 they made it clear that the people who tried to solve it knew what it was but the later ones had people just accidentally solve it.
